New Lake Country CCS Pads--Anyone tried them yet?

I think the deisgn is cool, but I'm still sticking with Edge.
 
Tried the white and green pads. The pockets on the outer edges have a tendency to tear alittle. I do believe that polishes can be worked alittle longer and more intensely. The results for me were good, but not earth shattering. Those are my initial impressions.
 
Ordered some for Chirstmas but they are back ordered.

Went to order these last weeke and they are back ordered till end of January :(
 
I know that we are doing everything possible to get these back in stock. The prepurchase was overwhelming and in some cases not all arrived. For those that got a regular pad versus the CCS (substitution) you will be getting the pad as soon as its available. Please be patient ... most are backstocked currently.
 
Don't get me wrong I was pleasantly surprised when I got the reg pads.
:)
 
Looking forward to these pad's... when someone has some time, a review is a must! :awesome::righton:
 
I used my black one with FPII on a 'jeweling' pass after OC on my black BMW. Still cannot get all of the marks out. Pad worked nice and FP worked longer than I expected. Speed 6, quarter roof, 6 passes at 2-4 inches per.
Best part was the feel. No skipping or shudders, no splatter, stepped right over my sunroof seem and moved very easily. Cleaned up nice too!
Don't think I will throw away all of my current pads but when it comes replacement time I think it will be worth the upgrade. Thanks LC!
 
Review on the CCS Pads

Well, since everyone is asking and I have actually used mine, I'll throw my hat in the ring with a review. I got some of each size, the 7.5 curved shape for the rotary and some 6.5" flat ones for the PC. I wish I could sound a little more excited about them, but I'm not. Don't get me wrong, they are still really good pads, but I didn't think they cut down much on the splatter with the rotary like I was expecting. I got about the same performance using the VC pads. YMMV. Maybe after I get a little more experience with them I'll find them to be better. But for now, I like the VC's just as well.

Now, I did like the flat ones on the PC, and I could definitely tell the difference in keeping the polish in the pockets a little longer. but I did notice some additional wear on the outer edges that I usually didn't get with the regular LC flat pads.
 
Personally I like them.... I have used them a few times now and the one thing I can DEFF. notice is control. CCS vs Flat pads I can deffinately feel a difference in control with the rotary, less skip and chatter. Ive compared CCS vs Flats back to back and thats the only advantage I can see so far. As for splatter... well... Ive been using 106FF which you dont need a lot of to complete a 3x3 section, so... I cant really comment on that as I usually spread @ 600RPM and splatter isnt really a problem even with the flat pads.

So far... Im happy with them. To get a thourough review Ill have to use somthing to test the splatter factor. :)
